guys got my car out from ss concepts today .. my stock car without is going to raj for FFE tomorrow.

and the bumper fog rings has to move with the flow of the car bumper. we saw it in references that the rings are not straight . But the lamps inside are straight...

redeye · 16th November 2007, 23:38

if you see in these pics , you can find out that they are not exact straight

Hi, guys got the custom headers done by Raj on Sat .. It's a new machine now with more power. No sound yet since the Stainless steel End can is not yet attached , ALso got Storm GReen filter from Raj. which also not yet added to the car , since body works are there on the car...

Akshay1234 · 19th November 2007, 21:09

good choice of filter etc.. what other mods are going onto this? and post some pics of your car finally done buddy.

hi guys sorry been very busy with lots of stuff ... i had been to ss concepts today finally most of the body work is done .

i need help with the suspension which is the best for lancer ,not to lower the car but to improve ride and raise the height little.

i had ordered for koni sports cancelled it as they said its going to make the suspension really hard so the ride will be bad...

will post more pics later

wow that is one NICE body kit dude...but only an intake and FFE?? well with the "raised" suspension, the car definately has the looks, but no performance to match

redeye · 2nd December 2007, 09:55

The best option would be to stick to options permitted by your budget.

well considering budget constraints, how bout port polish and piggyback, or even the triport that viper is selling [read about it, nice product]
suspension upgrades would be great cuz then ur car will handle better, and by virtue of that alone perform much better than stock...
that coupled with the filter and FFE should make her quite a bit more powerful, and fun to drive [the stock car felt strained to me]

redeye · 3rd December 2007, 07:03

@themag- Your right... must stick to budget must resist lol
@docg- like themag said i must stick to my budget lets see how far i can go later...

s0uljah · 4th December 2007, 19:10

Forget the budget. You need atleast a 2L Mivec dropped into that!!

Why do you want to raise the car?

How much would a 2L Mivec (with tranny) cost? Say a 6A12?

Yea, I'm curious too...

redeye · 4th December 2007, 21:32

@souljah- i'm not planning for drag or total performance right now. if i had planned for performance i wouldn't have got the bodykit. Mivec not my option right now..

@razor4077- Lets say the car bodykit is low, and i don't mean to raise it really high just a little..
